Day Camp
Day Camp Program
PK to 5th Grade
Designed by a team of experienced Waterford School educators, Day Camp is an all-day multi-sensory program, where campers experience the outdoors daily, learn through STEM, music, dance, art, sports, swimming, field trips, and carefully conceived, self-directed play. The activities of each week are tied to an exciting theme, are led by experienced teachers, and are assisted by enthusiastic high school and college age camp counselors. There are four levels of Day Camp (from youngest to oldest): Wildebeests, Warthogs, Wolves, and Ravens.
